The menu will change seasonally, though you will find weekly and daily specials inspired from Chef Philippe’s visits to the local farmers markets and highlighting organic ingredients from local farms. The menu offers a nice selection of small plates that can be shared or combined to create your own “tasting menu” and should be perfect for those planning to catch a movie at the Harvard Exit theater across the street.
Catering & Dinner Parties: Entertain in style - hire your own private chef for a night. Chef Philippe can work with you to personalize a menu to fit your taste and suggest wine selections that will complete the dining experience. Available for groups of 8 or more.
Cooking Classes: Olivar now offers cooking classes at the restaurant one Saturday per month as well as cooking classes in your home, followed by a 3 course menu. Choose from basic cooking techniques to French, Spanish or Italian cuisine. This is a great option for a special gift.
About the Loveless building and the murals:
Olivar is located in the Loveless building on Capitol Hill, a building that dates back to 1928-30, adorned with intriguing murals depicting a fairy tale of author, poet and founder of modern Russian literature, Alexander Pushkin. These works of art were created by V. Shkurkin formerly of the Moscow Arts Theatre. Chef Philippe decided to keep the murals as they are an integral part of the community. The first restaurant to debut in this building was Russian Samovar way back in 1931.
